Home Sweet Home - U.A.E.

November 2009
Why have just a mansion, when you can have one on your very own artificially created island in Dubai. Whether its a property on The Palm shaped development, or a miniature of an actual country in The World, both are in high demand. Settlements on The Palm, dubbed the 8Th World Wonder, sold out within 72 hours, so line up your millions should you wish to purchase your very own Brazil.

I will give them credit...their ideas are wonderful, but it's not going to work. Well, it might work, but seriously I just think about ALL the people around the world suffering, and they are building that shit. America is guilty of it too, and A LOT more other countries. Dubai gets all the attention over there but Abu Dhabi is another place spending a lot on luxury hotels, and stuff. It's just ridiculous.

Imagine how fast all the ugly architecture would collapse once the economy struggles.

I think dubai is on too a too much on too a good thing myself but on the other hand it look beautiful but I fear normal everyday tourists like me could be put off by the high costs of everything in dubai next that will happen that only millionaires will only be allowed into UAE because off the extremely high costs of everything

@americaowns11, USA is allies with UAE and all the Arabian Gulf states, there are US military bases all over those places protecting them from Iran

What a nonsense to build skyscapers in the desert when there is no shortage of land or to built artificial islands. Dubai will run out of money and then everything will turn to dust.

@Mumblemumble375 FYI only 7% of Dubai's income is from oil. They have money because of projects like these that turned Dubai into a financial and tourist power house.

@HyTechRedNeck007 Sure, just as it has been working in the united states.
